Favorite Quotes

"Bottom line: Grace-based families realize that their children will struggle with sin. They consider it an honor to be used by God to show their children how to find true forgiveness in Christ. They are not intimidated by the dialogue that brings the discussion of sin into the light. In fact, they are grateful to be able to come alongside their children with an unconditional love during some of their toughest hours."
(Grace Based Parenting by Dr. Tim Kimmel)

Parenthood: That state of being better chaperoned than you were before marriage. ~Marcelene Cox

The quickest way for a parent to get a child's attention is to sit down and look comfortable. ~Lane Olinghouse

"[I]f I had to make a general rule for living and working with children, it might be this: be wary of saying or doing anything to a child that you would not do to another adult, whose good opinion and affection you valued" - John Holt
